Are you running Compuserve Classic on the machine in question, too? Is
the machine in question also running Win98? Is the Compuserve account
configured as a POP3 account on the second machine?

You're more than welcome to read the archived threads about this issue

I'm not certain you can access compuserve accounts via POP3:

@M Mordkovych: You say you have the account running in OE on another
machine. Is it configured for IMAP, not POP3, on that machine?

Hi!

Without Secure Authorization it asks for username and password and
never
accepts them (on the second machine it's not asking, Compusevre
Logon
is
already done by DUN)

Does Compuserve require you to use Secure Password Authentication?
Very
few
servers do.

Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Servers. Remove the check
mark,
close and open OE, and try.
